Read the following passage: Amid the many horrors of the Vietnam War, I found one of
the worst to be the waiting - those quiet times of inactivity
when anticipation of the next attack weighed on me like a
pile of bricks. I might be lying in the mud along a creek bed
somewhere, completely oblivious to the cold, the wet
earth, or the smell of gunpowder still fresh in my nostrils. It
was those times of waiting that showed me I had nothing
else in my mind – no past, no future, no ideas. Just a raw
awareness of the moment.
Which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's tone?
O A. In the quiet of the jungle, the rippling sounds of the creek carried
me back to happier days on my parents' farm.
B. I could hear my own pulse drumming in my ears, but my only
thought was to remain still and quiet.
C. For years after that, I would remember the terror and suspense of
those long minutes spent waiting.
D. The jungle had reached into my mind, and its thick vines choked
out everything else that had been there.
